Likes XEI for dividends. Lots of large-cap banks and pipelines.
CDZ has more mid-caps than the large caps that XEI has. Includes names like KEY, CSH.UN, GWO and ARE. More diversification, but more beta. Yield is 3.8%, not bad. Could complement XEI, but you may want to look at US or global dividend strategies for more diversification.
